Overview: Oil spills are, unfortunately, common events in many parts of the United States. Most of them are accidental, so no one can know when, where, or how they will occur. Preventing oil spills is the best strategy for avoiding potential damage to human health and the environment. However, once a spill occurs, the best approach for containing and controlling the spill is to respond quickly and in a well-organized manner. This document focuses on the need for a contingency plan against oil spills.
